A Day With Kenny

I went down to Los Angeles with Drehobl to meet up with Pappalardo and the Elwood team, to do a day in the life of Kenny Anderson. Kenny's got a pool in his backyard that he drained just two days before so that we could get a session going. Shit was pretty tight.

We met over at Kenny Andersons last week on Earth Day to do 'A Day With Kenny'.

The day ended at the Active store where Silas modeled the new Elwood bags

Thanks to Active, Kenny Anderson and his family, and especially Palmer and the Elwood crew for giving us rides, feeding us, and being a great host. Til next time.

What do you get the skateboarding millionaire who has everything? How about his own shoe?! Nike celebrated Nyjah’s new kicks with a good ol’ fashioned skate jam at his private park. Now when’s that video coming out?

Nike and Spitfire teamed up with Pawnshop Skate Co. Friday night to throw a party for Lacey Baker. With both a pro shoe and signature wheel coming out, there was only one thing to do—junk jam! —Ben Karpinski

Videographer Chris Mulhern has captured some amazing footage with the adidas team over the last few years. Here’s a re-edit of some of his favorite tricks and clips from the three stripe’s legendary squad.
